[Verse 1] As I lay down on the bed Try'na come to terms with what has just been said I don't know where I should look or what to say Is this happening to us today? [Chorus] If I could then I would scream I'd wipe the tears off of my face Wake me up if it's a dream This is more than I can take I'd give everything I own If someone else could take my place Will someone else please take my place? [Verse 2] How can life be so unfair? I can't breathe, in fact I'm choking on the air It's all over, I can see it in your eyes Hold my hand, don't ever leave my side [Chorus] If I could then I would scream I'd wipe the tears off of my face Wake me up if it's a dream This is more than I can take I'd give everything I own If someone else could take my place Will someone else please take my place? If I could then I would scream I'd wipe the tears off of my face Wake me up if it's a dream This is more than I can take I'd give everything I own If someone else could take my place Will someone else please take my place?
